Peering into the formation history of beta Pictoris b with VLTI/GRAVITY long baseline interferometry

GRAVITY Collaboration, M. Nowak, S. Lacour +65

Our objective is to estimate the C/O ratio in the atmosphere of beta Pictoris b and obtain an estimate of the dynamical mass of the planet, as well as to refine its orbital paramet…

An image of the dust sublimation region in the nucleus of NGC 1068

GRAVITY Collaboration, O. Pfuhl, R. Davies +40

We present near-infrared interferometric data on the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068, obtained with the GRAVITY instrument on the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope Inter…

High contrast imaging with ELT/METIS: The wind driven halo, from SPHERE to METIS

Faustine Cantalloube, Olivier Absil, Thomas Bertram +13

METIS is one of the three first-light instruments planned for the ELT, mainly dedicated to high contrast imaging in the mid-infrared. On the SPHERE high-contrast instrument current…

The GRAVITY Young Stellar Object survey -- I. Probing the disks of Herbig Ae/Be stars in terrestrial orbits

K. Perraut, L. Labadie, B. Lazareff +69

The formation and the evolution of protoplanetary disks are important stages in the lifetime of stars. The processes of disk evolution and planet formation are intrinsically linked…

A geometric distance measurement to the Galactic Center black hole with 0.3% uncertainty

R. Abuter, A. Amorim, M. Bauboeck +51

We present a 0.16% precise and 0.27% accurate determination of R0, the distance to the Galactic Center. Our measurement uses the star S2 on its 16-year orbit around the massive bla…

Test of Einstein equivalence principle near the Galactic center supermassive black hole

A. Amorim, M. Bauböck, J. P. Berger +49

During its orbit around the four million solar mass black hole Sagittarius A* the star S2 experiences significant changes in gravitational potential. We use this change of potentia…
